It’s like Night and Day

[@alexgonzales6883]

The reason why people want Virgil to be with reynoso,is not because he has canelo but because eddy has a style where he can improve a lot in his defense and in that area exactly is where Vergil needs improvement

[@franklopez3687]

Exactly!!! The Robert garica is mediocre at best. No desrespect But besides miadana and mike garica that camp isn’t renown has great camp to produce or improve fighters.

[@I_be_e]

Never heard Big Virgil speak until this video and after watching and listening I Instantly became a fan of his. I'm a boxing fan since the mid 70's and it's refreshing to hear a man speak intelligently with both positivity and humility. Virgil Sr is the epitome of a man that's letting his son's talent speak for itself, and not his mouth like Teo's pops or Angel Garcia ( Danny 'Swift " Garcia ) do with their talented sons. I'm a big Spence Jr, Bud Crawford, Ortiz Jr. Leo Santa Cruz and Boots Ennis fan and I wish all these fighters the best! Moving from my native Los Angeles to the Dallas area soon and a Spence Jr. vs Ortiz Jr. bout at AT&T stadium would be absolutely EPIC! Fight party at my new crib.... All of you are invited! Peace & Blessings
